[1] Both the Colorado State University (CSU) and Goddard superparameterization GCM (SP-GCM) simulate a superactive Asian summer monsoon with unrealistically enhanced levels of precipitation. The underlying physical mechanism for this monsoon bias in the CSU SP-GCM is shown to involve an enhanced convection-wind-evaporation feedback. The feedback process is studied using two experiments with dif...

evaluation soil erosion is an important matter to protecting it from destroying in future due to the excessive use of the inherent capacity of soil and also improper management. therefore, in this study land vulnerability related to water and wind erosion of abyek for crops and pasture land has been evaluated, using raizal model as one of the microleis sub-models. morphological and physical and...

This is the first modeling reconstruction of the whole aspects (both meteorological and oceanographic) of the storm which hit Italy on 4 November 1966, producing 118 victims and widespread damages in Tuscany, at the northern Adriatic coast and in the north-eastern Italian Alps. The storm was produced by a cyclone which formed in the western Mediterranean and moved eastward towards Italy, reachi...

The aim of this paper is to project extreme precipitation events in an arid and a semiarid station. In order to project climate change based on general circulation models (GCMs), we have applied LARS-WG[1] downscaling tool. This stochastic weather generator down-scaled the climate of two synoptic stations using HADCM3 model and A2 emission scenario for 2040. We extracted extreme precipitation e...

Wind catchers  are one of the most prominent masterpieces of Iranian traditional architecture. In arid climate, it can improve thermal comfort through natural ventilation. With the aim of recognizing the impact of this masterpiece on thermal comfort, this research examined the effect of wind on summer ambient temperature by employing PMV. To this end, wind catchers  of Salehi's House was select...

abstarct development of greenhouse gases in future periods not only causes change in average amounts of climate variables but also makes variables of this variability affected. then for sure concerning alternations followed with climate variables’ fluctuations and its average amounts in effecting on runoff would make more reliable results. in this inquiry initially fluctuations and average amou...

Being a mountainous country, Armenia has undergone different kinds of natural disasters, such as droughts, floods, and storms, which have a direct influence on economy and are expected to occur more frequently in terms of climate change, raising the need to estimate economic vulnerability especially in agricultural sector. Agriculture plays a great role in national economy of Armenia, with 21% ...

introduction: the phenomenon of climate change and its consequences is a familiar topic which is associated with natural disasters such as, flooding, hurricane, drought that cause water crisis and irreparable damages. studying this phenomenon is a serious warning regarding the earth’s weather change for a long period of time. materials and methods: in order to understand and survey the impacts ...

Wheat yield forecasting is a significant component of planning and management of wheat exports from the Canadian Prairies. Commonly, regression models employing agroclimatic data pertaining to post-planting period are used as forecasting tools. However, the planning process of wheat export requires yield estimates even in advance of crop planting. Such advanced estimates are possible by using t...
